Hello everyone,

We are currently looking for a prefab home manufacturer to build our shell-and-core house and are a bit unsure at the moment, so we have a question for you in the forum.

Which manufacturer offers the highest quality, particularly regarding wall construction?
We already have some offers, but they are all within the same range, so we want to focus on quality and ecological aspects.
The candidates are

- Rubner
- Sonnleitner
- Ziegler
- Kurz
- Keitel-Haus

It’s worth mentioning that we are building a semi-detached house with a granny flat, totaling 250sqm (2,690 sq ft) over two floors.
We place great value on natural wall construction and ecological materials.

Does anyone have detailed experience with these companies or know more about them?
Thanks for your support!

Best regards

You can try googling Kaufmannbau from Oberstadion.
Solid wood, glue-free, and insulated with cellulose.

Ligno Trend builds the wall with cross-laminated timber panels. So, it's solid timber.

We used cellulose as insulation material. It’s recycled material, has a low carbon footprint, makes the walls a bit thicker, and provides better soundproofing.

Are you with Kielwein then? We visited them last week as well. I think they’re the only ones using cellulose. However, I was told that with a breathable building envelope, the insulation can lose about 10% of its effectiveness due to moisture. Whether that’s accurate, I don’t really know.

No, Schwirten and Klein from Gummersbach built our house.

Neither do I.
